Hddtemp daemon & Conky [Solved]

[elvis]

Hello. I'm trying to show in conky the temp of my hard disk (/dev/sda), but after a lot of searching I'm still in fail.

I have started hddtemp deamon with

Code: Select all

# rc-update add hddtemp default

and the status seems to be ok

Code: Select all

# /etc/init.d/hddtemp status
 * status: started


But in conky I still get a sadic N/A, as the output of ${hddtemp /dev/sda} in my .conkyrc

Indeed, going to http://localhost:7634/ I get

Code: Select all

|/dev/sda|ST9250315AS|UNK|*||/dev/sdb|???|ERR|*|

The normal command line hddtemp seems ok:

Code: Select all

# hddtemp /dev/sda
WARNING: Drive /dev/sda doesn't appear in the database of supported drives
WARNING: But using a common value, it reports something.
WARNING: Note that the temperature shown could be wrong.
WARNING: See --help, --debug and --drivebase options.
WARNING: And don't forget you can add your drive to hddtemp.db
/dev/sda: ST9250315AS:  38°C or °F


Any suggestion? I'm running Sabayon LXDE 32 bit
